Chapter 6: I Was So Careful
The view suddenly changed.
Yoru panted heavily as he woke up from the bed, with the sleeping boss’s wife Qiao Yi still lying beside him.
Qiao Yi’s back was smooth and beautiful.
The feeling of being alive was truly wonderful.
【Moon Arc activated!
The host has one resurrection opportunity per month and will resurrect on the previous full moon night after death.
Rewarded one lucky draw opportunity.
1-A-rank sealing jutsu·Karma Seal of Retribution（beginner）;
2-Chunin level chakra amount（stackable）;
3-Ninja sword technique（beginner）.】
Yoru stroked Qiao Yi’s slender waist and beautiful back while enjoying the rebirth and making his choice.
Ninja sword technique beginner—this option was quite practical.
Next, they were going to escort Yuka Uzumaki’s squad, and the cloud ninjas they would encounter all excelled in sword technique.
If he himself was also skilled in sword technique, he could predict their movements and gain an advantage in taijutsu clashes, avoiding death by ninja sword like last time.
Chakra amount, and stackable chakra amount, was also very practical.
His current chakra amount was chunin level, with no bloodline abilities, so his chakra amount didn’t grow as quickly as a genius’s.
If using original Kakashi’s chakra amount as a unit, his own chakra amount was probably only 1 units.
Yoru ultimately chose the first reward.
Who could refuse an A-rank difficulty sealing jutsu?
Ninjutsu rank didn’t represent power, only mastery difficulty.
The Uzumaki clan’s Karma Seal of Retribution had very good effects.
The heavily injured Yuka Uzumaki had completely controlled two cloud ninjas with the Karma Seal of Retribution.
After understanding it slightly, Yoru grasped the principle of this sealing jutsu.
Through contact, or pre-arranging it on the ground underfoot, it could make the enemy fall victim to the sealing jutsu.
The sealing jutsu’s curse mark locked all the enemy’s joints, rendering the enemy unable to move.
The system reward was beginner-level Karma Seal of Retribution; when arranged on the ground underfoot, the casting range was within 2 meters around.
Strong control, and an extremely concealed trap.
Not bad, not bad—finally he had a second ninjutsu.
Yoru went to the window, looked back at Qiao Yi’s back and legs, jumped down, and disappeared into Konoha’s dawning morning.
While changing equipment in the squad locker room, Antelope Captain felt something was off.
For some reason, Fox looked at him one more time today.
Yoru fumed inwardly—last life, when he died, Antelope Captain had no intention of saving his team member and turned to leave.
If not for his ability to resurrect, he would have died as worthless as wild grass in the wheat field.
This life, Yoru decided to save the three whirlpool ninjas, keeping them in fighting condition, which was the only way to deal with two cloud ninja squads.
The plot was very familiar; their squad found Yuka Uzumaki’s squad in the Land of Waves.
This time, Yoru brought better healing medicine ahead of time and bandaged Yuka Uzumaki more carefully.
Yuka Uzumaki was deeply moved.
The Hidden Whirlpool Village had allies like the Senju and Konoha—it was truly fortunate.
The Anbu in front of her wore a mask, but she could feel this Anbu’s care.
To ensure the bandaging effect, the bandages were wrapped deep into Yuka Uzumaki’s thigh.
Yuka Uzumaki had to spread her legs wider, which made her a bit shy.
Her long legs were straight; Yoru had some stray thoughts in his mind, but not many.
These three whirlpool ninjas had to step up—they couldn’t just die simply, or he wouldn’t survive either.
After seriously bandaging the leg wound, he also bandaged the wound on Yuka Uzumaki’s hand.
Yuka Uzumaki looked through the mask and saw a pair of beautiful eyes; she said softly, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
“I heard your captain call you Fox—what’s your real name?”
“Classified.”
Yuka Uzumaki felt a bit regretful; this Anbu was so earnest but wouldn’t even tell her his real name.
Later, when she went to Konoha Village, she wouldn’t know where to find him.
After entering the Land of Whirlpools, Yoru was more tense than anyone.
Especially when walking onto the field path between wheat fields.
Recalling the scene from his previous life, Yoru found the reference point and the position of the exploding tag trap.
The cloud ninjas were very strong, hidden without any flaws, not knowing how many days in advance they had concealed themselves here.
He took out three shuriken from the ninja tool bag and threw them far into the depths of the roadside wheat stalks.
The others all looked at Yoru in confusion, not knowing what Yoru was doing.
The next instant, the exploding tag detonated!
It turned out Yoru had discovered the exploding tag trap.
Antelope Captain couldn’t help but look at Fox again; Fox’s observation skills were pretty good—he had actually spotted the exploding tag, which even he hadn’t noticed.
“Ambush!”
8 cloud ninjas stood up in the wheat field, and suddenly kunai and shuriken flew everywhere.
Yoru followed Yuka Uzumaki and charged into the wheat field.
One cloud ninja raised his sword and slashed fiercely at Yuka Uzumaki.
Yuka Uzumaki formed three hand seals in advance, then raised her kunai to block.
Clang! After the sound, the cloud ninja suddenly stopped moving.
The clash between the ninja sword and kunai abruptly halted, and curse marks appeared on the cloud ninja—that was the Karma Seal of Retribution!
Yoru watched intently from the side.
So that’s how it was—this sealing jutsu was so practical in actual combat.
The immobile cloud ninja was stabbed to death by Yuka Uzumaki’s kunai.
Another cloud ninja charged at Yoru.
Yoru blocked the ninja sword while luring the cloud ninja beside Yuka Uzumaki.
After Yuka Uzumaki lent a hand, Yoru smoothly stabbed the cloud ninja in front of him to death.
His decision was so wise—saving Yuka Uzumaki had indeed greatly increased his survival chances.
One cloud ninja squad leader targeted Yuka Uzumaki.
Yoru saw the excited look in the cloud ninja captain’s eyes, pretended to help Purple Cat, and quickly retreated.
He didn’t want to get caught in the battle between captains.
Killing one cloud ninja had already met the KPI; next was just slacking off.
Slack if he could get one, and keep slacking if he couldn’t.
Yoru darted around Purple Cat, looking extremely busy, but actually just intimidating Purple Cat’s opponent with little real effect.
Even so, Purple Cat’s pressure greatly reduced, and she gained more and more advantage in the taijutsu clash with the cloud ninja.
Seeing Purple Cat wound the cloud ninja, Yoru quickly stepped forward, and together with Purple Cat one on the left and one on the right, they stabbed the cloud ninja under both ribs to death.
The two exchanged a glance, feeling a bit like teammates.
At that moment, a woman’s scream came from behind.
Yuka Uzumaki was kicked flying by the cloud ninja captain, with two sword wounds added to her body.
Yoru thought to himself, this woman was hopeless—after helping her so much, she still couldn’t let him live off soft rice; wasn’t all the help wasted?
The cloud ninja squad leader wasn’t much better off either, his abdomen stabbed by a kunai and bleeding. He pressed forward, about to chop down the fallen Yuka Uzumaki.
Yuka Uzumaki formed hand seals with both hands, using the Karma Seal of Retribution with full power.
The cloud ninja squad leader’s sword was already falling, only 30 centimeters from Yuka Uzumaki’s wrist, but it was bound by the curse mark, unable to move.
He trembled, squeezing out his last bit of strength, wanting to sever this female ninja’s wrist and eliminate her resistance.
Purple Cat saw the sword wounds on Yuka Uzumaki and judged that Yuka Uzumaki no longer had value as a guard.
He rushed over, kunai straight for Yuka Uzumaki’s throat, with murderous intent.
Yoru thought to himself, this is bad—Yuka Uzumaki was still useful; if she died, he still wouldn’t survive, right?
Even he and Purple Cat together couldn’t beat the cloud ninja captain.
